[0028] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is briefly described below:
[0029] According to some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 6 As shown, the present application provides a safety warning device for a bridge crane 21. When the bridge crane 21 fails, one side of the bridge crane 21 is moved to the edge of one side of the track 20, and a safety warning device is set on the other side of the bridge crane 21. The safety warning device includes:
[0030] A laser distance measuring device 13, which is used to detect an object approaching from the other side of the track 20;
[0031] The PLC controller 14 and the three-color sound and light alarm 8 are respectively connected to the laser distance measuring device 13 and the three-color sound and light alarm 8. When the PLC controller 14 detects that an object is approaching through the laser distance measuring device 13, the PLC controller 14 controls the three-color sound and light alarm 8 to issue an alarm prompt.
[0032] Furthermore, the safety warning device also includes a voice module 5, which is connected to the PLC controller 14. When the PLC controller 14 detects that an object is approaching through the laser ranging device 13, the PLC controller 14 controls the voice module 5 to issue a voice prompt.
[0033] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, before the maintenance of the high-pressure hydraulic bridge crane 21, the operator first places the safety warning device on the edge of the vertical surface of the body of the faulty bridge crane 21, facing the bridge crane 21 running with the same span. Figure 6 As shown, it can be placed on the rail 20 beam of the crane 21 or on the maintenance ground platform of the crane 21. At the same time, the elevation angle can be adjusted by 90° and the rotation angle can be adjusted by 360° to realize the switching of the safety warning for the operator above the crane 21 and the safety warning below the crane 21. After the safety warning device is placed, connect the power supply of the safety warning device to power the device. If the site does not have the conditions for power connection, install the lithium battery in advance to power the device.
[0034] After the safety warning device is powered on, the safety warning distance of the operating crane 21 in the same span is set according to the position of the maintenance crane 21, and the warning value 15 meters and the alarm value 6 meters are set respectively through the PLC controller 14, and the distance is detected by the laser distance measuring device 13.
[0035] When the distance between the crane 21 with the same span is greater than 15 meters, the three-color sound and light alarm 8 shows that the green light is always flashing, and there is no voice broadcast.
[0036] When the distance between the detection and the crane 21 running in the same span is less than or equal to 15 meters and greater than 6 meters, the warning value is reached. At this time, the PLC controller 14 issues a command to control the yellow light of the three-color sound and light alarm 8 to flash constantly, and controls the voice module 5 to broadcast the first-level danger alarm: "Please pay attention to danger."
[0037] When the distance between the detection and the crane 21 running in the same span is less than or equal to 6 meters, the alarm value is reached. At this time, the PLC controller 14 issues a command to control the red light of the three-color sound and light alarm 8 to flash constantly, the buzzer responds, and controls the voice module 5 to broadcast the dangerous secondary alarm, broadcasting "Danger, evacuate immediately".
